The project successfully developed and demonstrated a multi-source data correlator (MSDC), advancing it from TRL 3 to TRL 7. The MSDC processes data from optical, laser and radar sources to perform high accuracy orbit determination. The MSDC was validated in an operational environment, tracking real targets for which high accuracy ephemeris were available, facilitating system validation and proving its effectiveness in accurate orbit determination.

    Here it is proposed to conducted charged dust particle investigations in reduced atmospheres and hence plume/regolith interaction to provide mission assessments for its lunar, meteor and planetary missions including the Phootprint mission. Such studies are vitally important as the interaction of the hovering and landing plumes with regolith can have a severe impact on mission objectives and vehicle/engine performance. The study aims to provide with:
     
    • Assessment of scaling phenomena, vacuum effects and pulsing of rockets.

      Today, the GNSS clock error requirements are comfortably met with the current on-board atomic clock technologies (Rubidium Atomic Frequency Standard (RAFS) and Passive Hydrogen Maser (PHM)) whose parameters are refreshed every 100min to 1 day. In the future, it is expected that similar (or improved) error requirements will be required, combined with increased autonomy (up to 15 days) without external intervention. While some techniques are being investigated to address these challenges (e.g.

      Compared to current practices, where training of AIT procedures typically uses physical models of the actual hardware, manufactured at discrete moments in the spacecraft development life-cycle, the virtual reality AIT trainer, called ICARUS, shall offer substantial benefits by enabling realistic and immersive training scenarios. This shall provide more flexibility, as there is no need to have any physical models made available for the sole purpose of training.

      An important bottleneck to monitor surface energy fluxes and evapo-transpiration is the lack of accessible land surface temperature and land surface emissivity data with sufficient revisit time and spatial resolution. Evaporo Transpiration (ET) and soil moisture monitoring products are crucial in agricultural and associated water management, precision farming and crop yield forecasting.

      In today?s increasingly connected and contested cyber space, effective and thorough security testing of software and systems is mandatory to achieve any level of security assurance and trustworthiness of systems for its stakeholders. In fact many organizations and owners of modern complex systems today adopt a paradigm of ensuring system resilience rather than prevention and protection, assuming that attacks and some level of compromise are inevitable and focusing on how to minimize associated disruption.
